Marty Friedman

Marty Friedman (far right) is best known for being Megadeth’s shredder-in-chief during the ‘90s. Largely self-taught and renowned for his improvisational skills and unconventional picking technique (he favours upstrokes), Friedman’s first Megadeth album, Rust In Peace, is considered to be the band’s best to date - where Marty dared to go beyond traditional scales and fused both Eastern and Western styles in his guitar solos.
